famous Highlawn stations, Alcantara
and Alcyone. sons of Geo. Wilkes from
the famous brood mare Alma Mater, by
Mambrino Patchen. These youngsters
are one and two years old, excellently
bred on the dams side, and are full of
promise.
The family of Mambrino Chief was rep
resented by three black stations of ad
mirable style, size and general excel
lence, namely, Roland (2:2s), by Crown
Chief, owned by Mr.. Clarke of Boston;

creditable race among the , 40 stations,
winning the first heat and being a close
second to Engineer in the other three.
